Tuesday, January 15th 2008

Beginning of class we got our Blogging Self- Assessment, which is due by Friday! Remember, dont be too hard on yourself, or too easy on yourself, Max will mark you close to what you deserve based on how well you did the days you were scribed to blog.

For the remaining of class, we reviewed circles. He gave us questions similar to the ones he'll be giving us for our quiz later on this week.. Which, in my opinion is sooooooo difficult.. But Tony The Tiger did always say .... "Practise Makes Perfect".. well he also says "YOUUUUUUR GRREAT!" haha, anyway, sorry a little carried away.

Anyway, So!
Homework question due for tomorrow, on circles. yayy.
Well, Cook is scribe for tomorrow
I'm gone for a trip to Assissippi.

p.s, in order to help you with your circle questions, review your Circle Properties notes!
